Chapter 162 Blackmail "Husband, someone is blackmailing me, come and pick me up,...
In June, Tian Ruan joined the translation club.
The leader of the translation club is Ai Ge, a smart and steady girl. She said to Tian Ruan, "I've heard about your experience in the opera club and the literature club. I hope the translation club won't make the same mistake again."
Tian Ruan said: "The threshold for joining a translation agency is so high, I believe the members are all very reliable."
Ai Ge only said: "They are all ordinary people."
Tian Ruan went to meet these so-called ordinary people. The lowest-ranking one had both parents who were university professors and had taken the IELTS two years ago.
"...Hello seniors, my name is Tian Ruan." Tian Ruan greeted honestly.
"We've heard of your great name for a long time." They said with a smile.
Then Ai Ge threw him an English manuscript and said, "Give me the translation tomorrow."
When Tian Ruan returned home that day, he began to study the manuscript, which was very particular about the choice of words and sentence structure. Because many professional terms were used, he was not sure about the interpretation at the moment, so he went to ask Yu Jingmo for advice.
Yu Jingmo glanced at the manuscript and said casually, "Although the meanings of liable and responsible are similar, liable often refers to legal responsibility and is passive. Responsible, on the other hand, focuses more on morality and duty and is active."
Tian Ruan suddenly understood and asked a few more questions. Anyway, there was no rush. While he was drafting the translation with pen and paper, he asked, "Mr. Yu, how is the Xu family doing?"
I haven’t heard any news about Xu Bingyang recently, and Tian Ruan almost forgot about this person.
"The police have recently stepped up their efforts to crack down on gangs and eliminate evil." Yu Jingmo said lightly.
Tian Ruan was stunned, "Did the Xu family get swept away?"
"Even if they weren't swept, they would probably be the focus of attention."
Tian Ruan nodded, "So, Xu Bingyang should be preparing to run away."
Yu Jingmo: "Then he can only run to some small countries."
Tian Ruan understood it immediately. Europe was Du Henbie's base camp. It would not be easy to escape under his nose. Now Xu Bingyang must be extremely regretful for stabbing this big Buddha Du Henbie, and even if she wanted to send him away, it would not be impossible.
There is no need to worry about this villain for the time being. I believe that he will not be able to do anything for the time being. Tian Ruan concentrates on the exam week at the end of the semester and club activities.
The Translation Club is not as lively as other clubs and has little presence. There are more than 100 clubs in Deyin, and the Translation Club ranks outside the top 70 or 80 in popularity.
This actually made Tian Ruan feel at ease. Those messy club activities, such as the rehearsals of the opera troupe and the reading club of the literature society, were really too much to handle.
Tian Ruan prefers to immerse himself in the ocean of knowledge and enjoy the influence of Chinese and foreign texts.
What surprised him was that Xi Qin would actually participate in the activities of the Translation Club. Ai Ge was half a member of the club, and student union members had the privilege to directly join any club.
Tian Ruan repeated incredulously: "... Will the student union have the privilege to join any club?"
Ai Ge: “That’s right.”
Tian Ruan: "Then what's the point of me working so hard to get 9 points in three minor languages?"
Ai Ge: "You are so stubborn."
Tian Ruan: “…”
Xi Qin took Tian Ruan's translation and looked through it carefully, saying in a leisurely tone, "I asked you to read the Student Union Member Rules, but you didn't read them yourself."
Tian Ruan only felt that he had lost 100 million yuan. It turned out that people should not be too confident. Thinking that Yu Shang didn't remind him, he became even angrier and glared at his adopted son as soon as he returned to the classroom.
Yu Shang: "Do you have an eye disease?"
Tian Ruan: "Student Union members have the privilege to directly join any club. Why didn't you tell me such an important thing?"
Yu Shang said with a wooden face: "Telling you it's not even more lawless."
"What do you mean by lawless? I'm not a troublemaker."
Yu Shang did not comment.
Tian Ruan glared at him.
Lu Qiuyan said, "Even if you pop your eyes out, he won't think he's wrong."
Tian Ruan thought it made sense and was too lazy to glare at him.
Yu Shang said seriously: "Lu Qiuyan, let's talk after school."
Lu Qiuyan was startled, and paused while looking for a pen. "What are you talking about?"
Tian Ruan gave him a pen and asked, "Dating?"
“…”
Yu Shang: "Talk."
Lu Qiuyan took the pen as if nothing had happened, grabbed Tian Ruan's hand, and drew a little turtle on the back of his hand in a few strokes.
Tian Ruan: "...Why not draw a rabbit?"
Lu Qiuyan: "With you in it, it's just a tortoise and a hare."
Tian Ruan suddenly felt that the little turtle had become adorable, "Thank you, I like it very much."
Lu Qiuyan looked like he was looking at a fool.
When Wang Weiqi entered the classroom and saw the little turtle in Tian Ruan's hand, he asked, "Why did you draw this?"
Tian Ruan: "This is the amulet Lu Qiuyan gave me. It's very effective."
"Really?" Wang Weiqi was a little skeptical, but after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and said, "I've been a bit unlucky recently..."
"How unlucky are you?" Tian Ruan asked immediately.
Wang Weiqi lamented, "No girls talk to me recently."
"…This is not bad luck for you, this is normal."
"Brother, you're exaggerating. I was very popular before. It must be force majeure that made girls feel alienated from me." Wang Wei said confidently, "How about this, if this turtle is really that smart, draw one for me too."
Tian Ruan never missed any business opportunity: "Five hundred dollars for a turtle painting, isn't that expensive?"
Wang Weiqi is very wealthy: "That's too cheap. As long as my luck with love improves, it won't be a problem for me to draw a dozen turtles."
"Okay, okay."
Lu Qiuyan, who was listening: "..."
It would be a waste if you don’t make money, so Lu Qiuyan drew a more rugged turtle on the back of Wang Weiqi’s hand.
Wang Weiqi paid with WeChat and said, "Brother, if this peach blossom charm is useful, I will ask you to draw it again."
Lu Qiuyan: "Thank you for your patronage."
I don’t know if it was because of the halo of the protagonist, or if the turtle was too cute and ugly, but within ten minutes, Wang Weiqi, who was showing off the back of his hands, received giggles from the girls.
Wang Weiqi immediately started talking to them. The girls who had ignored him before actually took the initiative to talk to him. Wang Weiqi was immediately excited, his face flushed as he said to Tian Ruan and Lu Qiuyan: "Fuck, this talisman is too powerful!"
Tian Ruan smiled and said nothing.
Lu Qiuyan looked at him as if he were a mentally retarded person.
Wang Weiqi spread the news of the effectiveness of the "Turtle Talisman", and soon, thirty or forty students gathered at the door of Class 1 to ask for the "Turtle Talisman". And Lu Qiuyan became a popular "master".
Lu Qiuyan: “…”
Tian Ruan: "Oh yeah, little money, Modo Modo."
Yu Shang had nothing to say about this. When people from the student union learned about this and wanted to dispel the superstition, he sent them away with just a look.
Student Union: The president really protects Lu Qiuyan and they are in love!
Lu Qiuyan made a huge sum of money inexplicably, but compared to the debt his family was carrying, it was just a drop in the bucket.
It happened that Yu Jingmo was very busy that day and could not come to pick up Tian Ruan.
Tian Ruan had nothing to do after school, so she planned to wait for Yu Shang to go home together while sending a WeChat report to Yu Jingmo.
Tian Ruan: Mr. Yu, I’m done with school and will be taking Yu Shang’s car back home.
Yu Jingmo: Yeah.
Tian Ruan: Yu Shang said he wanted to talk to Lu Qiuyan, I don’t know what to talk about, but I hope it’s about love.
Yu Jingmo: Yeah.
Tian Ruan: How are you? Is everything going well?
Yu Jingmo: Everything went smoothly, don’t worry.
Tian Ruan: Miss you/Kiss you
Yu Jingmo: Yes/Kiss
Tian Ruan was smiling like a fool. She had been in love with Yu Jingmo for more than half a year after marriage, but they were still so affectionate. Tian Ruan found it unbelievable.
"Aren't you going back yet?" Yu Shang's cold voice hit his eardrums, and Tian Ruan suddenly came back to his senses.
"I'll go with you." Tian Ruan said as he put on his small schoolbag.
Yu Shang paused after hearing this, "Why?"
"There's no reason for me to ride in my son's car."
"..." Yu Shang said, "I have something else to do. My dad should have sent a car to pick you up."
Of course, Tian Ruan would not miss the opportunity to eat the melon of the protagonist, and lied with open eyes: "Uncle Liu's son Xiao Liu is sick and didn't come."
Yu Shang is about to call to get things clear.
Tian Ruan quickly stopped him: "Hey, don't hit me. Xiao Liu is in the hospital because of hemorrhoids. He must be embarrassed."
Yu Shang: “…Oh.”
Lu Qiuyan packed his schoolbag and walked by with a leisurely pace, "As expected, drivers are a high-risk group for hemorrhoids, and they often sit for a whole day."
Tian Ruan gritted his teeth and continued, "Yes. We sit all day, so we still need to move more."
Lu Qiuyan looked at him with a smile: "You and... move more." In case there were eavesdroppers, he did not mention Yu Jingmo's name.
Tian Ruan: “…” I really don’t want to understand it immediately!
Tian Ruan said sadly: "Lu Qiuyan, you have changed."
Lu Qiuyan: "After spending enough time with you, even Barbie can turn into King Kong, and even a mute can recover miraculously."
“…”
Now that the days are longer, students at Deyin have plenty of time to engage in other activities as school ends at 4 p.m. Lu Qiuyan has no club activities, he just wants to rush home and work in a bar.
Yu Shang wanted to talk to him and followed him to the alley near his home.
Lu Qiuyan leaned his bicycle against the wall, turned around and said, "You have 20 minutes to talk. Go ahead."
Yu Shang glanced at Tian Ruan and said, "Go back to the car."
Tian Ruan: “No.”
Lu Qiuyan said without hesitation: "There is nothing he can't listen to."
Yu Shang: "...Don't take the recent rumors about the student union seriously."
"What's that rumor?"
"It's the rumor about us."
"What's up?"
“…”
Tian Ruan pondered: "Could it be about your love affair?"
“…”
Lu Qiuyan said unnaturally: "Nonsense, is it worth mentioning?"
Yu Shang: "I'm afraid of being a burden to you."
Lu Qiuyan didn't care at all: "What burden can I have? There are already enough rumors about me."
"That's good." Yu Shang didn't know what to say.
The two of them were silent for a while, and Tian Ruan looked anxious: "Yu Shang, if you have anything else to say, tell Lu Qiuyan quickly."
Yu Shang: "And..."
Before he finished speaking, five or six hooligans came over. The leader had tattooed arms, flip-flops, a Hawaiian floral T-shirt and floral shorts, a cigarette in his mouth, and his eyes were tilted. He looked at people with contempt: "Lu Qiuyan, are you ready for the 50,000 yuan I asked you to prepare?"
Tian Ruan looked up, thinking it was a loan shark, but unexpectedly Lu Qiuyan said -
"Who are you?" Lu Qiuyan glanced at those people with a calm expression. It seemed that this was not the first time he encountered such a thing.
Ever since his family went bankrupt, all kinds of people have emerged from the dark and dirty corners, trying to plunder some of the Lu family's flesh and blood. Lu Qiuyan has encountered this kind of thing no less than seventy or eighty times.
The gang leader exhaled a thick white smoke and crushed the cigarette butt with his foot, "Master Lu is really a forgetful person. He forgot about me so quickly. I am a humble man. I just came to this street and asked the brothers for food. If you can take out 50,000 yuan, we will never bother you again. Otherwise..."
"What's the matter?" Lu Qiuyan hung his schoolbag on the handlebars of the bicycle, flexed his wrists, and looked at the group of people coldly.
The gang leader was stunned for a moment, but soon regained his composure, "I have investigated you thoroughly, including your home address, house number, and the rumors about you at school. You are in love with the eldest young master of the Yu family, right?"
“…”
Tian Ruan: "Ah? Even the gangsters know about it?"
Lu Qiuyan glared at him in shame and anger.
Tian Ruan: "...It definitely wasn't me who said that. It must be someone else in the student union who is talking nonsense."
Lu Qiuyan: "The source is you."
"sorry."
Yu Shang's expression was also a little strange, and he asked the gangster: "Who told you that Lu Qiuyan and I were in love?"
The gang leader looked at Yu Shang and said, "So you are the eldest son of the Yu family. You are really handsome. So for the safety of your boyfriend, it's not too much to give me five million, right?"
Tian Ruan doubted his ears, "How much?"
"Five million."
"Your father is really good at raising the price."
"Hahaha... I can't help it. It's because Young Master Yu is rich. Hey, which family are you from?"
Lu Qiuyan: "He is Yu Shang's stepfather and Yu Jingmo's wife. He is much richer than us."
Tian Ruan: “…”
The gang leader said: "That's fine, you can give me 50 million."
Tian Ruan: "Why don't you say 500 million?"
"Five hundred million?" The hooligans were almost drooling. "Then add your son's five million and your daughter-in-law's five hundred thousand, that's not too much, right?"
Tian Ruan: "It really opened my eyes to the knife in my butt. This is the first time I have seen someone who is better at blackmailing than me."
Lu Qiuyan couldn't bear it anymore and punched him.
Yu Shang also went to beat people up with his face red and ears turned red.
At first, the thugs were fearless because of their numbers, but they were soon defeated by professional fighters and fencers, and one or two even ran away. The gang leader was so angry that he started cursing.
Lu Qiuyan beat people the hardest, and the gang leader ran away in panic: "Fuck! I only need 500,000, that's all!"
The two men said nothing, but just caught the gang leader and beat him up.
"Ten thousand? No, one thousand will be enough!" said the gang leader who couldn't stand it anymore.
Tian Ruan was amazed and called Yu Jingmo, "Husband, someone is blackmailing me, come and pick me up, I want to go home and do my homework."
Yu Jingmo: “?”
Tian Ruan seemed to be able to read minds, "Really? If you don't believe me, just listen. This is the sound of them fighting."
The gangsters: "Ah! Oh! Ouch!"
Yu Jingmo: “…”
It sounded like the battle was fierce. Yu Jingmo said, "Wait a minute, baby. Accept the offer first, no matter how much it is. Don't get hurt. I'll come pick you up now.
Tian Ruan evacuated the center of the intense battle, "I am not injured, but my son is injured."
Yu Jingmo: "He has thick skin and tough flesh, he's fine."
Although Yu Shang only suffered minor flesh wounds, he was still speechless when he heard Tian Ruan's cell phone call.
The gang leader was knocked away by Lu Qiuyan's fist, but he turned around and raised his thumb to Tian Ruan: "666."
Tian Ruan announced like a referee: "KO!!! The protagonists have won once again. Let's applaud their perseverance. Clap, clap, clap!"
The gang leader: “…” What a shame for his father.
Yu Jingmo chuckled over there. His wife was still as lively as ever today.
